A Moving Experience




In Castlecrag we live in the rock formations with the native animals and plants. Recently our home discovered just how alive Mother Earth is when boulders came loose in our garden and headed for our windows. Fortunately Mark Crew a renowned Castlecragite, Environmental Engineer, Stone Mason, Landscaper and Gardener fitted our job into his busy schedule.
Today we moved the rocks. Using a tripod and pulleys and combining our muscle power Mark and I lifted the sandstone off the window. It is now resting on the path. Behind it begins the excavation down to the larger sandstone rock so that a new section of wall can be built before these feature rocks are used on top again. After the work was done I found a small frog and a baby eastern water dragon. The ants came out to explore the new earth surface. The sun is shining and rain has stopped.
